Please is it possible to use the windows 10 Notification Center in MVD.
If not then I think it will be a nice feature in MVD.
Let me know if it is possible to do that in MVD.
Regards

@thezimguy

Re: What to implement first?

I use Delphi XE3, which don't support this feature (TNotificationCenter).

Re: What to implement first?

Thank you very much Dmitry,
I have another question
Please can you add a search in the functions and classes panel for easy search?

Thank you Dmitry

Re: What to implement first?

The same with the calendar object, power between several designs of it. I think you could add within the properties of the button a call "Styleicon" or something similar, where you can change the design of the button icon ie Material etc.

Re: What to implement first?

Imagine that this hard to implement, but when downloading a file or a even a page, sometimes the application freezes. This is because the main thread is waiting for the download to complete and Application.ProcessMessages is of no use in that case.
But if you can not implement thread management, could you had the Work, WorkbBegin and WorkEnd Indy HTTP properties?

Unfortunately script not support threads.

Re: What to implement first?

Hello xerus66

Another method to navigate in you tablegrid :

procedure Affichage_Button8_OnClick (Sender: string; var Cancel: boolean);
begin
      Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow := Form1.MaGrille.RowCount - 1;        // Aller au premier enregistrement
end;

procedure Affichage_Button7_OnClick (Sender: string; var Cancel: boolean);
begin
     Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow := Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow +1;      // Aller sur l'enregistrement suivant
end;

procedure Affichage_Button6_OnClick (Sender: string; var Cancel: boolean);
begin
    Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow := Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow -1;       // Aller sur l'enregistrement précédent
end;

procedure Affichage_Button5_OnClick (Sender: string; var Cancel: boolean);     // Aller sur le premier enregistrement                                                                                 
begin
     Form1.MaGrille.SelectedRow := 0;

Re: What to implement first?

It will be nice to have a navigation control for the tableGrid. I wish it will be implemented soon.
Thanks

Re: What to implement first?

Hello Dmitry,
Please would it be possible to add a function to restart the app after a user makes some changes.

Example

ShowMessage('The app will restart to apply changes');
RestartApp;

Thank you in advance

You can create bat file and place them to the project folder

@echo off
timeout /t 2 /nobreak
start "" "filename.exe"

how to restart

procedure Form1_Button1_OnClick (Sender: TObject; var Cancel: boolean);
begin
    OpenFile('restart.bat');
    Form1.Close;
end;

Re: What to implement first?

Hello,

I would like to see an easier way to use our own images as buttons (i do not mean changing the icon of a button but just use an image that has the same kind of properties/possibilities like you drag a button to the form) so you could possibly make the GUI looking more modern like you see in today's apps.

Re: What to implement first?

Hi DBK,
Please have a look at the attached.  I find it the easiest way of using images as buttons.
I simply associate an image with a hidden button.  Then in the script, you just click the associated button when the image is clicked;
You can make it a bit slicker if you want by 'moving' the image slightly to make it look like it's been clicked (I've done this on the 'calendar' image).
Perhaps this gives you some ideas.
Regards,
Derek.

Hello Derek,
Thank you very much for the example!
This is a really clever solution, as usual!
I am going to use this solution while i wait until Dmitry could add this feature smile
I feel that it would still be much faster if we could have a draggable 'toolbar' action to make these kind of buttons without scripting a clever workaround.

Re: What to implement first?

Thank you once again Dmitry,
Based on your response I have been able to achieve restarting of the app with the following block of code

procedure Form1_btnRestart_OnClick(Sender: TObject; var Cancel: boolean);
begin
    Form1.Close;
    OpenFile(Application.ExeName);
end;

I think it may be useful to others.
